Charity Partner

Our Department partners with the Madison Mini Marathon and 5 K because we care about the women of Wisconsin and their families. We believe that the 'Mini' and its associated events demonstrate a community coming together and having fun while engaged in healthy activities. The Department proceeds generated from this community event are deposited to the Healthy Women, Healthy Babies fund. The Healthy Women, Healthy Babies fund was created to provide the resources needed to promote educational awareness about healthy lifestyles of women of all ages and how their decisions impact not only their lives, but the lives of their current and future family members. The funds are used to further our Healthy Women, Healthy Babies educational mission and also go to support other organizations whose missions promote healthy living.


Your support of our Department through the Madison Mini-Marathon provides the resources necessary to continue to make community programs like the Annual Blanket and Diaper Drive possible and promotes the Healthy Women, Healthy Babies mission of the department.
